El Flow tells the story of reggaeton, its most emblematic artists, and the secrets of how the genre’s top hits were made. It’s a story of migration, expression, evolution, sexuality, rebellion, and repression. Since its beginning, the genre has had one constant; movement. From Panama to Puerto Rico, from Boston to Medellin, from Mexico to Brazil. There has always been someone willing to raise their hand and take the lead. As a result, reggaeton evolved as a merger of Pan-American musical influences, which in turn helped explode its appeal. Now, It’s time to look back at how we got here.
As our season finale, La mexicana con tremendo flow, the bilingual rapper Snow Tha Product shares with us how the child of migrants from Mexico made it to stardom.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
